About Our
Shelter:

The mission of the Humane Society of Richardson County is to prevent pain and cruelty, to place all adoptable animals in suitable homes, with the goal of zero euthanasia. To educate the community on the humane care and treatment of all animals, with emphasis on the importance of spaying/neutering.

Our Adoption Process:

The Humane Society of Richardson County views owning a pet as a privilege - not a right. Unfortunately, not all people can successfully take on the responsibilities of pet ownership. It is for this reason that HSRC has a strict adoption policy. Our adoption program strives to place animals only as companion animals in kind and responsible homes where we are confident that they will receive proper care and attention throughout their lifetime. By doing this, we prevent future cruelties and actively control pet overpopulation. Our ultimate goal is to insure that fewer and fewer animals become tragic statistics in the communities that we serve.

When adopting an animal from the Humane Society there will be an interview and an adoption agreement to fill out and sign. Adoption fees are variable depending on the individual animal and funds invested.

Our Adopted Pets:

Dog adoption and cat
adoption saves lives. Adopt
a dog or adopt a cat and you'll
have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting
a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats
for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs
and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of
dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed
is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten
breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat
or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt
a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane
society or pet rescue group.
